So, LeakyCon - That Happened...

[itsjustgwen]

My 11-year-old daughter decided to tag along with me on my trip to Portland for LeakyCon. That meant no hanging around in the Slash Suite for me. Sigh. Between the long lines and panels canceled because of presenters and panelists who failed to show up, I was unimpressed with the con organizers. We liked the vendors' room, the cool costumes, and the Ball, but the programming failed to impress.

The best thing about LeakyCon was the MAX streetcar pass that came with the con badge. Casey and I certainly utilized that! We had a great time exploring the city- going to the Saturday market, the waterfront park, Powell's City of Books, and talking to interesting people, wherever we went. We even ran into the actor who plyed Seamus Finnegan in front of our hotel!  It was a great mother-daughter weekend.

He's tiny! Or, you and your daughter are quite tall...

Glad you had a good time, if not at the con, at least in the city.

He is REALLY tiny. It's almost scary!

So glad I got to see you if only for a moment. And also glad you and your daughter enjoyed your time in Portland.

Yes, it was good to see you, if only for a second. I wish I could have spent some time with the slashers, but Casey would not have enjoyed that!
